In the first episode, four of the unlikely pairs attempt to establish
friendships despite the generational gulf between them. 13-year-old
Jacub, who has ADHD and is struggling to cope with his dad's suicide, is
paired with Clive, whose son died from an overdose. Their initial
meetings go well but will the older man be able to help Jacub manage his
behaviour? 13-year-old Tawne and retired nurse Judy have something in
common: they are both victims of bullying. However, their first meeting
is a disaster. 16-year-old Robbie's mum has multiple sclerosis, and he
often misses school to help her, while his partner Rick has lived alone
for years. Finally, 16-year-old Wez has a passion for boxing, but former
electrician Dave doesn't rate it as a career.
